50th Anniversary Celebration

Our three children plus spouses and six grandchildren came together to celebrate our 50th anniversary. It was a great house, plenty of room and the view of the river is spectacular. We ate meals on the back deck and enjoyed s’mores over the campfire. A great time was had by all!

Great house and location

Our group of 10 enjoyed our stay at Riverhaven. The house is beautiful and spacious and we found the property to have everything you would expect from a 5 star rated home. We were unable to utilize the outdoor space due to the weather, but that didn’t change our great experience. We would definitely stay again!

Don't hesistate

RV was in Bristol for warranty and it snowed the days we at the house so did not get a change to explore Bristol itself. However, what a fantastic place to be snowbound - it was everything we expected, and more. Owner/Manager was super friendly.

Lovely Riverside Retreat

My family and I stayed at this lovely house perched beside the St. Joe River while attending the funeral for their father . It was exactly the retreat we needed -- beautiful spot, welcoming kitchen and decks, games and nearby parks for the kids, enough beds to go around. We loved our time there.
